Holder of a Master’s degree in sports journalism, I fell in love with tennis since childhood and have always loved reading the great stories of this sport. Today, I want to tell them about them, take full advantage of my passion and be as close as possible to the aces of the circuit.
World champion for the fourth time in a row, Max Verstappen began his domination during the 2021 season where he experienced a very competitive year against Lewis Hamilton, concluded during the last corner of the very last Grand Prix. The two drivers were often neck and neck to the point of crashing at times, a difficult situation for the race marshals.
During the 2021 season, Max Verstappen et Lewis Hamilton played a thrilling duel that will be remembered for a long time. Both drivers played with the limits often in a sport that is already very dangerous. Technical developments allow for better security but zero risk does not exist.
Verstappen and Hamilton on the limit
By fighting until the last moment for the title of world champion in 2021, Lewis Hamilton et Max Verstappen gave the example of a fierce fight for future generations but for the commissioners, we must also be careful of the danger. “I want to let them run for show. But we need to let them run safely, so we can mix the two things. That’s our, let’s say, fine line when we have to understand where it can end up becoming too much. I believe that in 2021, Hamilton and Verstappen raised the level of competition, because it was an incredible season, perhaps one of the best in the last 20 years. But obviously they took it to a more dangerous level.” recognizes Vitantonio Liuzzione of the consultant drivers of the race commissioners’ office of the FIA in F1 in the podcast Inside Linereported by Nextgen-Auto.
Safety in Formula 1 at the forefront
Sometimes the victim of collisions during the various races on the calendar, Max Verstappen et Lewis Hamilton could have ended up in the background more often given the competition between the two. “We don’t want to be, let’s say, tied to luck. We want to be very safe for the sake of the sport and the drivers who are in the car. And I think we work very well. We have a great show. We just want everything to be clearer for the drivers and for them to know how to manage the competition.” continues Vitantonio Liuzzi regarding security.
